Please note - that due to high demand for our speaking services, and the time required to write and present new material, we generally charge speaking fees for conferences, seminars and workshops unless they are deemed to be of strategic benefit or we are feeling altruistic. We are also happy to present via Video Conference (VoIP highspeed broadband required) or Pre-recorded Video Presentation, or a mixture of both, to cut down on carbon emissions from travel.
